Confucius say "The ox is slow but the earth is patient". Markie say "The upload is slow but the internet is patient". It was most definitely worth it. You have saved face and earned great honor.
Your pictures are very National Geographic like. Cool.
This is all VERY interesting to me. Please keep them coming! I love how you captured so much of the culture in your pictures. Great stuff!
I'm enjoying all these great pictures, very much. I feel like I made the trip and didn't have to go through the grueling effort you guys did!
